Assistant Professor of Political Science, University of California San Diego.

​

I study American political institutions, with my research covering legislative politics, Congress, information dynamics in policy-making, and the interbranch relationship between Congress and the bureaucracy.

 

My recent work advances a new understanding of how institutions shape the search and use of information in policy-making.  Some of this research appears in my book Hearings on the Hill: The Politics of Informing Congress (with Ju Yeon Park and Hye Young You), published by Cambridge University Press and available here.

 

My other research is published in the American Political Science Review, American Journal of Political Science, Quarterly Journal of Political Science, Legislative Studies Quarterly, Business and Politics, Journal of Political Institutions and Political Economy, and Political Science Research & Methods.  I received my Ph.D. in Political Economy and Government from Harvard University in 2018.
